[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Appreciate the pp who keeps trying to point out that  immigration is not a state issue.  Unfortunately, like so many other issues, facts don’t matter to the voters who would vote for Trump and this new version of Gillespie.  Sad state of affairs since our country relies on an informed electorate but so many vote on conspiracy theories and hate/fear instead. [/quote]

Thanks. This is making me start to think that a civics test should be a requirement for voting. [/quote]

There are about 300 state and local governments with laws, rules, or policies that impede federal efforts to enforce immigration laws. But what exactly does that mean to the average American citizen? Since 2014, about 10,000 criminal aliens who were released because of sanctuary policies were arrested – again – for new crimes.  That’s 10,000 preventable crimes. Sanctuary policies make us all less safe.

facts are tough things for liberals.[/quote]

Okay, Stephen Miller. Look, I'm obviously not going to be convincing you of anything, nor you me, but I'll leave you with this link: http://www.politifact.com/california/statements/2017/aug/03/antonio-villaraigosa/mostly-true-undocumented-immigrants-less-likely-co/ Non-partisan fact checkers find that it's not likely that undocumented immigrants commit crime at a  greater rate than U.S. citizens.

You can believe the Center for Immigration Studies all you want, but that doesn't mean that they don't have an agenda... and again, it doesn't have one iota to do with the Virginia governor's race. This is a federal, not state issue.

I'm done here.
